At Queenstown Paraflights, your safety is just as important to us as the incredible views and unforgettable flight. While soaring above Lake Wakatipu is a breathtaking adventure, we’re equally committed to ensuring every experience is carried out with the highest level of care and professionalism.
Professionals at the Helm
Our crew is made up of experienced parasailing professionals who are not only passionate about flight but also rigorously trained in safety and emergency procedures. Each member of our team undergoes regular assessments and drills to ensure top-tier performance and passenger care. Whether you're flying solo, tandem, or as a group, you're in skilled hands every step of the way.
Equipment you Can Trust
Our boat - the Red Dragon and parasailing gear are kept to the highest maintenance standards. We use a specialised winch boat designed for smooth lift-offs and gentle landings, with all equipment meeting or exceeding industry safety regulations.
Our operation is certified and regularly audited by Maritime New Zealand.
Boarding with Confidence
Our launch site is conveniently located at the Main Town Pier in Queenstown Bay. The jetty can be busy with foot traffic, we recommend you watch your step, keep children close and follow any signage or staff directions when boarding or disembarking. Weather can make the jetty surfaces slippery, we advise wearing suitable footwear.
We provide a full safety briefing and help you into your harness and gear before take off. Our goal is to ensure you feel confident, secure, and excited before your feet ever leave the ground.
